Last weekend I was one of the demonstrators who taught at the Auckland Extravaganza. Earlier in the week I posted the card that Jacques and I taught. Over the next few days I will show you the other four projects that were made.This is a Layered 3D Pyramid Card which was taught by Sally and Heather. The great thing about this card, is that although it is a 3D card it can lie flat and be posted.

The DSP and stamp set used in this card are some of the free products available through Sale-a-bration. If you would like any of these products or another other free Sale-a-bration products remember that tomorrow is the last day to place an order. You can order online here or contact me.Come back tomorrow and see some of the other projects we made.

Sorry for the lack of posts recently. Last week was a busy week for me as I was preparing for the Extravaganza. This event was a lot of fun and we had about 90 people come and participate. They each got to learn some new techniques and use some new products and complete five wonderful projects. This is the card that Jacque, Kathryn and I taught. We used the Envelope Punch Board to create the file folder effect on the card and we used the Happy Watercolour and Hardwood stamp sets.

If you would like to learn how to make this card and have a group of friends interested in coming to a class, please let me know and we can arrange one. Otherwise I have other classes available too.Supplies:

Recently I have been using a lot of the Sweet Sorbet DSP which I love using, but I thought I would use some different colours this time to create this card. I have used the Fresh Prints DSP stack and the Petite Petals stamps and punch. Another new tool I enjoy using is the new Scalloped Tag Topper Punch which also features on this card. There are so many great uses for this punch as well as for making tags.

The Thinlit Card Dies are a great way to make some impressive cards easily. Here are two cards that I made for some birthdays recently. I included a extended flap so there is more room to write a message. They both feature the Sweet Sorbet DSP which is one of the free products available with Sale-a-bration.

Here is the inside of the card. I had a slight smudge on the left front of the card, and needed to cover it up somehow, so that is how I came up with the idea of putting the hearts on the front. The hearts are also one of the dies from the Circle Thinlit Card Die set. So not only do you get the card die, you also get other 9 dies that can be used on cards or other creations.

Here is the second card I made with this same die. This card features another free Sale-a-bration product, the Petals Parade stamp set.

The heart stamped on the inside circle is from the Peachy Keen stamp set.

Supplies:Stamp sets: Create a Cupcake, Petal Parade (SAB), Label Love, Peachy KeenCardstock:Crisp Cantaloupe, Coastal Cabana, Whisper WhiteInk:Crisp Cantaloupe, Coastal CabanaDSP: Sweet Sorbet (SAB)Other: Big Shot, Thinlit Card Dies (Circle), Artisan Punch, Cupcake Punch, Boho Blossom Punch, Sponges, Tombow, Dimensionals, Rhinestones There are only 18 days left of Sale-a-bration and with every $110 purchase you can choose a free product, so remember to get your order in by the end of this month.

I have been a Stampin' Up! demonstrator since August 2012 and I really enjoy what I do. I initially joined up to be able to benefit from the 20% discount off the products that I buy and to be able to use what earn to help pay for my own craft supplies. Although I love being a stay at home mum and I am grateful that I can be, I also wanted to have some time to do something a little different from that. I really enjoy the the chance to be able to teach some classes and share my passion of card making.

Stampin' Up! have a great range of good quality products that I love to use and that is why I enjoy being able to share these products with others. I have also enjoyed meeting lots of wonderful people through my classes.You too can join up. You may want to join up for own reasons such as the benefits of building up your own crafting supplies, or as a business opportunity. You can teach classes if you like, but you don't have to if you don't want to. If you decide to join up, I will be there to support and guide you. I would love you to join my team.

Now is a great time to join up. If you join up during Sale-a-bration you you receive $305 worth of products for $189.

Here is some more information about joining up.If you have any questions, feel free to contact me by email, or let me know if you would like me to give you a call. Feel free to ask me any questions about joining up with no obligation if you decide it is not for you.

Here is a similar style card to yesterday, but using some different colours. Yesterday's card featured Summer Starfruit. This ones still uses the Sweet Sorbet DSP paper available through Sale-a-bration, but features Crisp Cantaloupe.

I also made an envelope that coordinates with the card.

Here is a coordinating gift that I made to go with the card. It is a covered shopping notepad. It has a magnet on the back so it can be placed on the fridge. I made a box using the Envelope Punch Board to put the gift in.

I had lots of fun using the On Film Framelits Dies with the Peachy Keen and Simple Stem stamp sets. This card was inspired by something my upline, Julia Leece had made.Here is the card with its coordinating envelope.

Here is a close up of the front of the card. I was initially going to put the greeting banner on the right side of the card, but I noticed an unfortunate ink smudge on the bottom of the left front of the card, so I had to cover it up somehow. Putting the greeting banner on the left thankfully hid the smudge.

Here is the inside of the card.

Supplies:Stamp Sets: Peachy Keen, Simple Stems, Express Yourself (Hostess set)Ink: Summer Starfruit, Gumball Green, Basic Black (marker)Card: Basic Black, Whisper White DSP: Sweet Sorbet (Sale-a-bration 2014)Other: Big Shot, On Film Framelits Dies, Stampin Trimmer, Two Way Glue Pen, Tombow, Whisper White C6 EnvelopesRemember you can get this DSP pack for free with any purchase over $110 until 31st March as part of Sale-a-bration.
